both guys are very average its disrespectful to compare them to Ward vs Gatti or Chico vs castillo let alone Joe Frazier or George Foreman but they should make an immediate rematch before one or both gets Junama'd

you think Ward & Gatti were anymore skilled then Rios and Alvarado? WTF?

Gatti and Ward are even worse. Talk about overrating. Agreed on the average comment.

I really can't say enough about how great tonights fight was, BOTH FIGHTERS ELEVATED THIS SPORT TO ANOTHER LEVEL!

Rios is a BEAST, THAT CAN'T BE DENIED, I will say, Rios has same recovery abilities as a Joe Frazier, seriously quick! it's going to take a George Foreman type punch to put him down.

Alvarado, showed up to fight and then some! He made the adjustments, stuck to a plan for the overall fight and proved my prediction right!!!
Watching Alvarado dig deep after that second round to get the win, watching him fight through that hellfire Rios was blasting at him, um, I'm beyond impressed.

Boxing won tonight, we all just witnessed a Hall of Fame fight and Trilogy on the way! no doubt.

What a fight, with a Trilogy coming out of this, this is a christmas present on Easter eve.

140 is looking HOT right now. wow!

Well said,damn there are some Rios haters on here. Props for another great fight between 2 excellent 140 lb-ers.
